Content Construction Kit (CCK) is one the most important and at the same time most mystifying features of the Drupal platform. In this drop I'll provide a high level overview explanation of CCK and why you might want to use it on your site.
What is CCK?
CCK is a contributed module that allows you to:
- Add fields to an existing Drupal content type
- Create new custom content types
Drupal Content Types
It's important to understand a bit about Drupal content types. Drupal comes standard with blog, page and story content types. The main difference between these content types is the way they are organized by the system.
- Blogs are associated with a particular user and will be listed at 'http://www.yoursite.com/blog' which shows all blog posts by all users. Blogs will also be listed on page that shows only posts by a particular user. The url for those pages may be something like 'http://www.yoursite.com/blogs/[username]'.
- Pages will simply have a url " and not show up in any lists unless you take some sort of action to do add them to a list.
- Stories are like pages except that they are automatically promoted to the front page.
